Not experienced in constructing an ethnography (and this is also the first time I've heard of a 'discourse community'), but I'm so jealous you get to do it on something like Nabari no Ou!

I read through it, and it was certainly strange to read a fandom-related topic approached through this kind of context, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! It was also really interesting how you found that the people in the Nabari no Ou fandom were more...'brighter' haha X'D

And pfff, it was fun reading the survey and interview responses!

I think you did a great job on this! :)

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'd never heard of a discourse community either, but you learn something new every day, eh?

I'm still waiting to hear on my grade, so *fingers crossed.*

Thanks for reading and letting me know what you think! :)

I think you spelled my name wrong when you referenced me in your paper (which is very, very good, btw). It's Meghan with an 'h'!

Gah! And I thought I checked that because Meghan can be a tricky name to spell. Boo. I don't have access to the original file at the moment, but I'll go back in and fix it once I get the chance. Thanks for letting me know!
